TEISSERENC DE BORT, PIERRE EDMOND (1814-1892)

This article appears in Volume V26, Page 508 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: TAV-THE
TEISSERENC DE BORT, PIERRE EDMOND (1814-1892) , French writer and politician, was born at Chateauroux on the 17th of September 1814, and entered the civil service after the completion of his education at the tcole Polytechnique. He was a railway expert, becoming secretary-general of the Rail-way Commission established in 1842, government
commissioner
  to the authorized railway companies,
administrator
  of the Lyons-Mediterranean railway, and
commissioner
  to examine foreign railways. In 1846 he was returned to the Chamber of Deputies for Herault, but the revolution of 1848 drove him into private life, from which he only emerged after the down-fall of the Empire, when in February 1871 he was returned to the National Assembly. He supported the government of
Thiers
  and was minister of
agriculture
  and commerce in 1872-73. He sat in the Left Centre, and steadily supported republican principles. He entered the Senate in 1876, and was minister of
agriculture
  in the
Dufaure
 -
Ricard
  cabinet of that year, retaining his
portfolio
  in the Jules Simon ministry which fell on the 16th of May 1877. In 1878, when he joined the new
Dufaure
  cabinet, he opened the Paris exhibition of agriculture and manufactures, the
original
  suggestion of which had been made by him during his 1876 ministry. In 1879 he was sent as
ambassador
  to Vienna, whence he was next year recalled on the score of
health
 . Two years later he re-entered the Senate, where he did good service to the cause of " Republican Defence " during the Boulangist agitation. He died in Paris on the 29th of July 1892. His works consist of discussions of railway policy from the technical and economic side.
